“Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Noons II” features a main event between Strikeforce welterweight champion Nick Diaz (22-7 MMA, 3-0 SF) and former EliteXC lightweight champion K.J. Noons (10-2 MMA, 2-0 SF). The contest serves as a rematch of the pair’s November 2007 meeting in which Noons earned a TKO victory at the close of the first round. Noons has since reeled off four more wins, while Diaz is 7-0 since the loss.
